Registering a Foreign Judgment of Divorce

  • 1.  Registering a Foreign Judgment of Divorce

    Posted 01-09-2018 09:19 AM
    Hello friends,

    I have a client who was divorced in New Mexico about twenty years ago.  Both he and the ex-wife have since relocated to New Jersey.  Prior counsel had started a QDRO and gotten it approved by the plan, but it never got signed by a Judge.  Since they both live here now, they'd prefer to have a NJ Judge sign it than try to coordinate with the New Mexico judiciary.  Does anyone have sample registering of a foreign judgment paperwork that they wouldn't mind sharing?

    Thanks in advance!
